Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 1204: Holy Fool

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“The Great Horn Army has already collapsed.”

Meng Chao said, “Judging from the current trend, in less than three to five days, ‘Jackal’ Kanus will be able to swallow all the Great Horn Army soldiers who’ve surrendered and form a new order.

“When that happens, this area will become his territory.

“And when he realizes that the Ancient Dream Saintess might not be dead yet, he will definitely mobilize all his forces and form an iron wall in an attempt to stop and kill us.

“We have to escape the area controlled by ‘Jackal’ Kanus before the chaos ends!”

As Meng Chao spoke, two flames ignited in his hands.

It was just like how Ice Storm instantly froze the Ancient Dream Saintess so as not to cause her cells to expand and explode.

If one wanted to thaw, one had to instantly raise his body temperature to the normal thirty-six to thirty-eight degrees.

One degree more or one degree less could affect the cell activity and even the safety of his life.

Of course, that was not a problem for Meng Chao.

The flames in his palms were like two streams of lava spewing out of his body. They turned into fiery dragons that bared their fangs and brandished their claws. Then they coiled around the ice crystals that sealed the Ancient Dream Saintess.

However, Ice Storm was hesitant to speak.

Meng Chao raised his eyebrows and asked, “Is there a problem?”

“No problem,” Ice Storm said.

“However, you better be mentally prepared. Don’t be shocked by the Ancient Dream Saintess’ appearance. She’s… very special.”

Meng Chao frowned slightly.

Of course, he knew that the Ancient Dream Saintess was very special.

Otherwise, she would not have been selected by “Jackal” Kanus from the millions of rat people and turned into a puppet that could easily sneak into other people’s dreams. Then, trained to be the Great Horn Army’s commander.

He did not understand what Ice Storm meant.

Nevertheless, his movements were not slow. With a flick of his fingers, the two fire dragons split into twenty fire snakes and disappeared into the ice crystals.

Following some subtle cracking sounds, the ice crystals melted completely in half a second and turned into thick steam. It was as if an extremely dense fog had risen in the depths of the cave.

However, despite Ice Storm’s reminder, when the fog dissipated and the Ancient Dream Saintess’ true face appeared in front of Meng Chao without any disguise, he was still greatly surprised by her incredible appearance.

At that moment, the Ancient Dream Saintess and Meng Chao were completely different from each other in the wounded soldiers’ camp and in their dreams.

In the wounded soldiers’ camp, she had been like an amiable girl next door, full of sympathy for all the wounded soldiers. The thoughtfulness she had shown in changing the dressing for the wounded soldiers was so touching that he had been speechless. He wanted nothing more than to protect her innocent, simple, and kind expression.

In the dream realm, the girl next door, who possessed four pupils, had seemed so sacred and inviolable when she played the bone flute and commanded thousands of skeleton rats. Her whole body had been filled with a powerful aura of invincibility, like a commander who had received the blessing of God.

Whether it was as the girl next door or the supreme commander, the Ancient Dream Saintess always had an indescribable charm.

While she was not considered a peerless beauty who could bring down countries and cities, if the clan warriors with the strongest malice saw the Ancient Dream Saintess with their own eyes, it was impossible to associate her with the word “ugly” at the very least.

However, the Ancient Dream Saintess that Meng Chao was seeing with his own eyes was not only ugly, she was deformed.

If Ice Storm had not been watching her the entire time and the clothes the Saintess had worn last night, Meng Chao would not have been able to recognize her.

She was the key person whom he had risked his life to save last night.

At first glance, she looked like a shaved monkey, but her head was deformed and swollen. It was seven or eight times the size of an ordinary monkey’s head.

Her body was extremely thin and weak, and her limbs were withered like sticks. They were out of proportion to her head, making people faintly worried for her. Such a slender cervical vertebra actually had to support such a huge head. Would her cervical vertebra break with a crack if a gust of wind blew while she walked?

No, using the word “monkey” to describe her was too insulting and inaccurate.

The Ancient Dream Saintess’ hair was very sparse, and the wrinkles on her face were relatively shallow. Her facial features were compressed to the lower half of her face.

The upper half of her face was a smooth, round skull that had a translucent texture.

Her high protruding skull meant that she could accommodate two or even three times the size of a normal person’s brain.

Perhaps when the Ancient Dream Saintess saw a normal person’s skull, it was the same as when a normal person saw the flat and sunken skull of an ape. She would think that the latter was filled with stupidity.

Even with such a large brain, the Ancient Dream Saintess was still not satisfied.

She had forced her skull to continuously expand, forming huge bumps that looked like fists.

Many of the bumps on the skull, which should have been as hard as iron, had eroded and been rubbed until they were as as thin as a cicada’s wings.

With the help of the dim light from the flame, one could almost see her brain matter that was pulsating as fast as a beating heart.

In a way…

Rather than saying that the Ancient Dream Saintess was like a hairless monkey, it was more like Meng Chao had once seen her in Dragon City’s Earth Club.

The people of Earth had imagined her at the end of the 20th century. She had a big head, a small body, and a pair of big round eyes. She was an alien with bottomless eyes.

Right now, the eyes of this “alien” were tightly shut, and her almost non-existent eyebrows, were tightly locked. She kept trembling, revealing an expression of extreme pain.

As the ice crystals melted, her brain heated up again. In just a few seconds, the average temperature of her brain cells, which were vibrating at a super high speed, surpassed forty-five degrees.

Ice Storm could only unleash a layer of frost with the wave of her hand. It covered the Ancient Dream Saintess’ huge head with ice crystals that were as fine as sand, cooling her down repeatedly.

“How could this be?”

Meng Chao observed it again and again, but he still found it unbelievable.

He thought of the high-level priestesses who had been implanted with the Fear Bomb by “Jackal” Kanus. They had become deformed and gone crazy. “Could ‘Jackal’ Kanus be behind this?” he could not help but mutter.

“I don’t think so.”

Ice Storm said, “You can touch her bones. It seems that she was born with this appearance.”

Meng Chao frowned and carefully searched the Ancient Dream Saintess’ deformed head.

Indeed, he did not find any cracks or signs of bone proliferation.

Biological cells could release all kinds of incredible power after being filled with spirit power, which could regenerate people’s severed fingers, make them deform and expand, and even unlock the characteristics of an ancient vicious beast with three heads and six arms, a monster that was half-human and half-beast.

During this process, it was common for bones to be shattered and reassembled.

Just like Meng Chao himself, when he circulated the Divine Nine Dragon Seals and unleashed the Demon Subduing Pole, his entire arm would expand three to five times, turning into a peerless weapon that was cast with copper and iron.

When that happened, not only the flesh and blood cells would mutate but also the bone cells.

Based on the standards of medicine in Earth’s twenty-first century, he had long lost count of the number of times he had suffered comminuted fractures. Even peeing standing up was a miracle in medicine, not to mention going to heaven and earth in an extremely intense battle.

Therefore, Meng Chao’s bones were covered in cracks of all sizes. They were as fine as spider webs.

There were also traces of slightly protruding bone hyperplasia.

He was breathing spirit energy in and out every day, guiding his vitality magnetic field to resonate with the entire planet’s magnetic field in the Other World, using heavenly and earthly treasures to cleanse his marrow and meridians, as well as constantly repairing his own bones.

Despite all that, it was still impossible to erase all the traces of the bones that had been broken and regenerated.

However, with Meng Chao’s exquisite sense as a veteran reaper, no matter how he groped, he was unable to find a crack around the Ancient Dream Saintess’ skull.

That was impossible.

The Ancient Dream Saintess whom he had seen last night, no, before dawn today, had not been like this.

If “Jackal” Kanus’ long-range mind control could turn a young girl into such a miserable state overnight, it was impossible not to leave traces in her body.

In other words, this was the Ancient Dream Saintess’ original appearance.

“Who would have thought that the Great Horn Army’s leader was actually a ‘holy fool?’” Ice Storm said in disbelief.

Meng Chao’s heart skipped a beat. He found the term somewhat familiar.

However, after carefully searching through the memory fragments of his previous life, he only found a blur.

He asked, “What is a holy fool?”

“A holy fool is a special existence unique to the land of Holy Light. Well, now it seems that it’s not that unique.”

Ice Storm said, “In the land of Holy Light, such people often appeared. On the surface, they looked like sloppy, crazy, and even dumb idiots who had low intelligence. They were ridiculed, bullied, and humiliated by the people.

“These idiots, who couldn’t even solve the simplest arithmetic problem and didn’t even know how to hold a sword. One day, after being illuminated by the Holy Light humans, they were able to hear the voices of the gods, the Holy Light’s source, from beyond the sky.

“With the blessings of the gods, they stimulated wisdom and power that humans could never grasp.

“They were either prophets who prophesied and stopped a catastrophe, or…

“They were ordered to become commanders in an epic battle to resist the invasion of orcs, or…

“They taught the world about the latest technology and spirit contained in the Holy Light, or…

“They controlled the angel of slaughter that fell from the sky and sent the wrath of the gods to the battlefront when they needed it the most.

“In short, once a holy fool is illuminated by the Holy Light, he can awaken all kinds of incredible abilities and become the spokesperson of the gods in this world. He will be respected and obeyed by all the devout believers in the land of Holy Light as a ‘savior’ or something like that.”

“Hmm, if that’s the case, the role played by the Ancient Dream Saintess in Picturesque Orchid Lake and the role played by the human fools in the land of Holy Light are quite similar.

“However, according to the Holy Light priests, only the land of Holy Light that is eternally illuminated by Holy Light can produce such a divine miracle as the holy fool.”

“As expected, even that is a lie….”
